happy fall!

Today is November 1st, and I can say, it officially feels like Fall here in Hawaii. How is that possible you may ask? I don't know, to be honest. There is a chill in the air (that I'm sure will be gone by noon), and it smells like Fall. You know that smell?? We get it here too! It felt wonderful to snuggle up under the covers, and I just wanted to lay in bed all morning. Christian obviously didn't feel the same way. When I got up I immediately had to put on a sweatshirt and socks. Ok, so maybe living in Hawaii makes you soft. I was cold. But I just checked the temp outside... AccuWeather.com says it's 78 degrees. I call shenanigans. It was definitely colder this morning. Maybe 72. Oh, and we're roasting pumpkin seeds at this very moment.

Anyway, we have spent the past week carving pumpkins and getting ready for Halloween.


And here are the finished products.


Carving the Hawaiian Islands was a bit harder than I originally expected. On my first try (the other side of the pumpkin) I totally messed it up. The islands were in a straight line... and there was just no way I was going to set it out. Rob told me afterward that he was glad I fixed it. Well thanks. :) But seriously, it was pretty bad. 

Last night was the Annual Pirl Halloween Bash, and since we live in their house... we were invited. :)

Rob and I decided to be "punk rockers" and Christian was our pet monkey. The cutest darn pet monkey I've ever seen!!!


I would say that the picture above, the one that's all a blur, but you can clearly tell Christian is having THE TIME OF HIS LIFE, pretty much sums up our Halloween evening. Christian had a ball. He is such a social butterfly. He danced, ran around giggling, followed the big kids, and of course loved on Daisy (the Beagle) as much as possible. He also stayed up way past his bedtime. It got to the point that I think he was running in circles, knowing if he stopped, he'd crash and fall asleep immediately. Delirium.

And for the first time in my life/his life, Christian expressed sheer terror... at our landlord dressed as a clown. Yep, he is my child. I hate clowns... and now I'm pretty sure Christian does too. Forever. Creepy things.

BUT... now that Halloween is over... it's time to start decorating for Christmas!!!

christian + baxter

I know I posted this on my Facebook page, but it is probably one of my all time favorite Christian videos. To say that he loves Baxter doesn't even begin to touch the surface. He loves Baxter. This went on for a while before I ran to get the camera. And as much as Christian "loves on" Baxter, Baxter takes it really well. Most of the time he is actually purring. Man, have we been depriving Baxter of attention THAT much??

I love Christian's belly laughs! It is literally the best sound in the world.
